Example
To change the point and/or direction on an already existing SDF file, see the following SDFEDIT
example:
To change the point number for channel 0 in the file test.dat to point 52 type:
sdfedit test.dat /c:0 point=52
To see the current point number type:
sdfedit test.dat /c:0 point
To see the choices for direction for channel 0 type:
sdfedit test.dat /c:0 direction=
or
sdfedit test.dat /c:0 dir=
You can abbreviate field names. To set the direction to ‘TX__DIRECTION’
sdfedit test.dat /c:0 direction=TX_DIRECTION
or
sdfedit test.dat /c:0 dir=tx
or
sdfedit test.dat /c:0 dir=7
To see all the field names (and current values) in the channel header type:
sdfedit test.dat /c:0
You can set multiple fields at the same time. To set the point to 5 and the direction to Z_DIRECTION
type:
sdfedit test.dat /c:0 POINT=5 DIRECTION=Z_DIRECTION
or
sdfedit test.dat /c:0 poi=5 dir=z
This example also shows that the field names and the selection names are NOT case sensitive. You can
change fields in more than one header at the same time. To set the point to 2 in the
SDF_CHANNEL_HDR and the measTitle to ‘’this title’’, type:
sdfedit test.dat /m meastitle="this title" /c:0 poi=2
This example also shows that setting a field value that includes blanks requires you to put quotes around
the field value.
